Real-Time Dynamic Voltage Scaling for Low-Power Embedded Operating Systems
, 2001
"... In recent years, there has been a rapid and wide spread of nontraditional computing platforms, especially mobile and portable computing devices. As applications become increasingly sophisticated and processing power increases, the most serious limitation on these devices is the available battery lif ..."

the necessary peak computation power in general-purpose systems. However, for a large class of applications in embedded real-time systems like cellular phones and camcorders, the variable operating frequency interferes with their deadline guarantee mechanisms, and DVS in this context, despite its growing
System architecture directions for networked sensors
- IN ARCHITECTURAL SUPPORT FOR PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES AND OPERATING SYSTEMS
, 2000
"... Technological progress in integrated, low-power, CMOS communication devices and sensors makes a rich design space of networked sensors viable. They can be deeply embedded in the physical world or spread throughout our environment. The missing elements are an overall system architecture and a methodo ..."

The Cougar Approach to In-Network Query Processing in Sensor Networks
- SIGMOD Record
, 2002
"... The widespread distribution and availability of smallscale sensors, actuators, and embedded processors is transforming the physical world into a computing platform. One such example is a sensor network consisting of a large number of sensor nodes that combine physical sensing capabilities such as te ..."

the data is aggregated and stored for offline querying and analysis. This approach has two major drawbacks. First, the user cannot change the behavior of the system on the fly. Second, conservation of battery power is a major design factor, but a central system cannot make use of in-network programming
Pin: building customized program analysis tools with dynamic instrumentation
- IN PLDI ’05: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2005 ACM SIGPLAN CONFERENCE ON PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION
, 2005
"... Robust and powerful software instrumentation tools are essential for program analysis tasks such as profiling, performance evaluation, and bug detection. To meet this need, we have developed a new instrumentation system called Pin. Our goals are to provide easy-to-use, portable, transparent, and eff ..."

A wireless sensor network for structural monitoring
- SENSYS ’04: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2ND INTERNATIONAL
, 2004
"... Structural monitoring—the collection and analysis of structural response to ambient or forced excitation–is an important application of networked embedded sensing with significant commercial potential. The first generation of sensor networks for structural monitoring are likely to be data acquisitio ..."

acquisition systems that collect data at a single node for centralized processing. In this paper, we discuss the design and evaluation of a wireless sensor network system (called Wisden) for structural data acquisition. Wisden incorporates two novel mechanisms, reliable data transport using a hybrid of end
Razor: A low-power pipeline based on circuit-level timing speculation

Scratchpad Memory: A Design Alternative for Cache On-chip memory in Embedded Systems
- In Tenth International Symposium on Hardware/Software Codesign (CODES), Estes Park
, 2002
"... In this paper we address the problem of on-chip memory selection for computationally intensive applications, by proposing scratch pad memory as an alternative to cache. Area and energy for different scratch pad and cache sizes are computed using the CACTI tool while performance was evaluated using t ..."

the trace results of the simulator. The target processor chosen for evaluation was AT91M40400. The results clearly establish scratchpad memory as a low power alternative in most situations with an average energy reduction of 40%. Further the average area-time reduction for the scratchpad memory was 46
Design of a Wireless Sensor Network Platform for Detecting Rare, Random, and Ephemeral Events
, 2005
"... We present the design of the eXtreme Scale Mote, a new sensor network platform for reliably detecting and classifying, and quickly reporting, rare, random, and ephemeral events in a largescale, long-lived, and retaskable manner. This new mote was designed for the ExScal project which seeks to demons ..."
